Abstract
Protein PARylation is a reversible post-translational modification; however, its role in fungal virulence has remained elusive. Recently, Gao et al. demonstrated that PARylation of two 14-3-3 regulatory proteins by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is essential for the virulence of rice blast fungus, highlighting the critical regulatory function of PARylation in fungal pathogenicity.
